Access to Medscape is free, just choose 'Consumer, other' from the list of professions. I just logged in for the first time and this article caught my eye. Wouldja look at the totals for the drugs? And the grand total? How many of the commercials for those drugs do you know by heart? (Quick, who is the spokesperson for 'Enbrel'?)

 

Is your fave (or former poison) on the list?
